Tetris Kelly:Cardi B says she’s single, while Offset shuts down wild rumors. Some of your favorite artists get nominated for the Golden Globes. Olivia Rodrigo gives epic performances over the weekend. And we revealed this week’s top 10 for the Billboard Hot 100. I am Tetris Kelly, welcome to another week of Billboard News. It’s Monday, December 11, and we’re kicking today off by setting some rumors to rest coming straight from Cardi B and Offset themselves.
Cardi B:I have been single for a minute now but I have been afraid to like, not afraid, I just don’t know how like to tell the world.
Tetris Kelly:Okay, girl, you better let them know. Cardi B says her and Offset are done, as Offset is coming at Blueface for saying he slept with Chrisean Rock. I was not expecting all this on my Monday morning, but let me break it down for you.
Cardi B:I want to start 2024 like fresh, open. I don’t know, I’m curious for new life, for a new beginning.
Tetris Kelly:You heard it from Cardi. She’s been single for a while and didn’t know how to tell us but she’s also referencing the drama surrounding Offset. Blueface fired off several tweets about his baby mama Chrisean, with one saying, “So you ain’t Cardi husband November 10th at 4am at their house in LA? I’m making this up.?” Offset responding to one of the tweets saying, “I never talked or touched that lady. Real talk man, you need some help.” Does Cardi believe all this?
Cardi B:When it comes for today’s events and stuff, I don’t know if it’s — I don’t think it’s true. I don’t care to find out.
Tetris Kelly:Wishing all of them the best in figuring this out. Onto some Olivia Rodrigo. She had a busy weekend and I was obsessed with every moment.

Singer, songwriter and dancer Victoria Monét gives Billboard a full behind-the-scenes look at her The Jaguar Tour, being a mother on the road, getting her first solo Billboard Hot 100 placement, love for Ciara and more!Victoria Monét:Are you hearing that?
Cameraman:Yeah, let’s hold for one second.
Victoria Monét:I can’t get no quiet around here because we’re on tour.
What’s up? It’s Victoria Monét, and this is my tour stop in New York City. And this is where I’m at the stage right down there in a little bit, so see you there!
It’s my very first tour, headlining ever. I’m doing a combination of songs from Jaguar I and Jaguar II. So you get, like, kind of two of my projects in one tour. It’s just really awesome. I’m excited to be doing this.
If I had to pick my favorite songs to perform from ‘Jaguar I and II, I think I would bookend it. My show starts with “Moment,” which is from Jaguar I, and it’s always exciting to see the crowd for the very first time. Everyone’s just, like, super in tune, all the phones are out, so that’s always really exciting. And then the finale is really fun. I do a song from Jaguar II called “On My Mama.” There’s a lot of energy surrounding it — it’s on the radio right now, so it feels very current.
The dance from the music video is somewhat viral, so I can see people doing it in the audience, so that always makes it more, like, an interactive part of the show, which feels really fun to do.
To see “On My Mama” become my first solo Hot 100 entry is really insane. I’ve been writing for so long and I’ve seen glimpses of it for my pen, but not for me as an artist, so it’s really, like, a whole new light for me. I’m super excited. I’m really grateful. I know how much it takes to get an accolade now. So I’m just thankful for everyone who is behind the scenes pushing it, every person at radio, everybody who’s streaming it and sharing with their friends and just making it go and do what it’s doing. I just have a really good understanding of what it takes to be anywhere near Hot 100. So I’m very, very thankful.
And now we are headed to talk to the GRAMMY U students!Watch the full video above!
